Early Childhood Programs within Millard Public Schools include programs for children and their families, prior to a child entering Kindergarten.  Each program is designed to achieve success through developmentally appropriate instruction by Highly Qualified staff. The Nebraska Department of Education identifies these children as those who have not reached the age of five on or before October 15^th of that school year.  Our Early Childhood Programs include:
